Request header is too large

Question

I found several IllegalStateException exceptions in the logs:

[#|2009-01-28T14:10:16.050+0100|SEVERE|sun-appserver2.1|javax.enterprise.system.container.web|_         


        

Answer 1

the proper solution is to add the following property under http-listener:

<property name="maxPostSize" value="" />

Answer 2

add/update at the tomcat server xml

<Connector port="8080" protocol="HTTP/1.1"
               connectionTimeout="20000"
               redirectPort="8443" maxHttpHeaderSize="65536" maxPostSize="4194304"  
               URIEncoding="UTF-8"/>
